Dealing with a covert narcissistic boss who’s escalating — how do I stay safe at work?
My new manager turned out to be a covert narcissist. She’s been eroding my role by stripping away responsibilities, giving me trivial tasks and using daily gaslighting designed to create self‑doubt. The more I contribute in discussions or share knowledge, the more her behaviour escalates, usually followed by a sudden meeting that’s clearly set up to gaslight me. I’m pretty sure she’s steering me toward a PIP. I’m job‑hunting, but progress is slow. Gray rocking hasn’t helped. it actually seems to aggravate her more. What can I do to safeguard my job and my mental wellbeing until I find another job?
